box1) Yuubaru also has a scholarship, as an art student.box2) From what I hear, he's working on his theme for an up coming competition.box3) But Yuubaru is also the type of artist (self proclaimed) // that unless an idea pops in his head, he can't work.box4) Because of that, he was in a major slump, // and chose us (Medaka-chan) for help.b1) Model for you? // Sure why not.b2) I'll do it. // Let me do it.b3) Will you let me do it?box5) Since she has no qualms with showing off her impressive body, Medaka-chan didn't blink twice at this request.box6) There was no easier request than this.box7) I couldn't stand the fact that Akune-senpai was disgustingly happy... but,box8) this case is open and closed...box9) is howbox10) it was supposed to have been.

page 6

b1) Not good!!b2) I can't draw this!!b3) I can't do justice to Medaka-san!!b4) Huuh? // What are you talking about? This is a good picture.b5) That's not right Hitoyoshi-kun. // I understand clearly what Yuubaru is trying to say.b6) This picture doesn't bring out Medaka-san's natural beauty!b7) If you can't draw anything other than the theme, then you can't call it a painting!b8) He's exactly right. // If you only want what the theme asks for, then just use a camera.b9) But we artists need something more to actually call what we do art.

page 7

b1) In other words, the perfect beauty Medaka-san,b2) has no merits towards fine arts!!b3) hmphb4) Medaka-chan is getting depressed!!b5) Hey! Yuubaru, you're being ridiculous!b6) You're the one that asked, now what do you mean she has no merit towards fine arts?b7) Artist's have to be ridiculous, Hitoyoshi-kun.b8) Okay? // If you're not ridiculous, you can't call yourself an artist!panel) No way... // That was so stupid, I don't have a come back.b9) Akune-senpai, what do you think we should do?b10) There isn't much esle we can do with Medaka-san like that. // We'll need to find a replacement model.

page 8

b1) A replacement model...b2) right...b3) Wha!? // Model? In a swimsuit!?b4) You've got to be kidding me? NO!b5) Can't you help us out a little? // If you want to keep the evil deeds you comitted a secret then, please do.b6) You know... // I don't get how you can try to blackmail a girl while bowing like that.b7) Well, whatever the case,b8) you're the only one we can rely on now!!b9) From what I've seen, amongst all those on the track and field team, your muscular body is the best looking!b10) I'm sure the two kanji used for art were meant to describe your body!b11) Do..b12) Do you really think so? // Since you twisted my arm...b13) Ah... // She made things easy on me.

page 9

b1) Well Hitoyoshi-kun,b2) it looks like our thought patterns are the same.b3) Hey, b4) Hitoyoshi-kun.b5) The same!? Excuse me!? // Don't look down on my Isahara-senpai!!b6) You'll change your mind the minute she takes her clothes off!!b7) What the hell are you whining about worm!? // My Nekomi-san doesn't have to take off her clothes to show off her appeal!!b8) And when did we become your items?b9) I'm not taking my clothes of!b10) Th-thanks a lot!b1!) I'll make sure to make a great picture out of you! // Please let me draw you.b12) Ah, don't worry, don't worry. // Its not like we had anything better to do anyway.b13) I'm actually quite busy.b14) kukukub15) Now then, lets begin!

b1) ugh...b2) The victims are piling up.b3) My favorite saying is, art isn't something that should be used to threaten someone.b4) To tell you the truth, those two are a little scary.b5) Wh-what do we do now?b6) As if you need to ask...b7) We need to bring some more people here...b8) But I can't think of anyone else.b9) He said that Isahara-senpai was no good.b10) I also thought that Nabeshima-senpai was more than enough too.b11) If he wants a totally different type than that...b12) Oh yeah!! // The case of the lost dog, Akizuki-senpai!! -small print- The perfect lady type.panel) That's right // What do you want?b1#) I just thought of one! // The love letter case, Yasshiro-senpai! -small print- the tom-boy type.

page 12

panel) She said no. // Yeah same here. Well, that's quite normal.b1) You guys... b2) are making a mistake.b3) Medaka-chan!!b4) Medaka-san, // are you alright now?b5) Its said you can't see the forest for the tress.b6) If you're going for a different type, then get the polar opposite.b7) An idea only becomes an idea when its bold!b8) In our student council, // we have you guys don't we!?

b1) But what's the point of painting something like this?b2) Hmm.b3) The theme is supposed to be "Beach Goddess".b4) This is more like "men's beach"!b5) Sigh...b6) We're at a total loss now.b7) Isn't the problem that you're too picky!?b8) Exactly! // You have 3 beauty's here and you're still not satisfied?b9) So stop with you whining and just paint! // You're in a rush aren't you?b10) Whether I'm in a rush or not,

page 15

b1) I wont paint what I don't want to paint.b2) I might be a picky person, // but I don't want to be a half-assed one either!b3) Hmm, // what you said is right.b4) But that doesn't change the situation your'e in.b5) That's true. // Right now, the real problem is you can't find someone to be a model for your painting.b6) Isn't the problem in the theme? // The perfect goddess statue changes with who's viewing it.b7) On that note, // Yuubaru, what's your idea of a goddess?b8) If I knew that, I wouldn't be in this rut.b9) Until we can say "This is it" about someone,b10) artists will simply wander in the darkness...b11) Hitoyoshi-kun! // Have you finished your student council work?b12) Let's go buy some food!

page 19

b1) hmph... // This time Shiranui stole the show.b2) As the student council, // don't you find this shameful?b3) But Yubaru didn't think that it was shameful or anything.b4) As proof, // take a look at his thanks.b5) He saidb6) he won't paint something he doesn't want to right?b7) Shiranui stands out more than me!b8) How extremely petty!next to panel) That was a fun request!
